[ Upstream commit abaa5258ce5e5887a9de049f50a85dc023391a1c ]
Add .percent suffix option to show the histogram values in percentage.
This feature is useful when we need yo undersntand the overall trend
for the histograms of large values.
E.g. this shows the runtime percentage for each tasks.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
